It's not easy being Green

Well here we are again.

I had last weeks post all ready to go and life happened. Sucks to be responsible. With that being said, here you are.

My nails have been growing quite nicely. I've managed to shape them into Stilettos and with the help of Gelish VitaGel Recovery, things were going along swimmingly. However, when my nails get to be a certain length, they start to curl under. I've trimmed them and now they are not as long.

I was looking on Pinterest for designs for shorter nail and I found this. http://hative.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/easy-nail-designs/1-easy-nail-designs-for-beginners.jpg

Easy Nail Designs for Beginners. So cute and simple that you can do it yourself.

Easy Nail Designs for Beginners. So cute and simple that you can do it yourself.

These nails are really pretty and simple to do. Thank you to @kiss_ot_chic for the idea.

I used my Bundle Monster Nail Art Vinyls. I bought them on Amazon. Not very expensive and it has 13 different designs. They cost $13.00. The l ink:https://www.amazon.com/Simple-Pattern-Manicure-Sticker-Bundle/dp/B00WZYQHE2/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1465749151&sr=8-1&keywords=bundle+monster+nail+vinyls

Step One: Place the Nail Vinyl where you want it on the nail.

Step Two: China Glaze Re-Fresh Mint

Step Three: China Glaze Four Leaf Clover

I forgot to take a picture of the White dots but here they are. I used Color Club Art Club Nail Art Lacquer. And the finished nail.

I used my usual Pro-Fx Nail Concealer for the base coat. Sally Hansen Insta-Dri for the top coat.

Here's a picture of my other supplies.

Enjoy your day.

Thanks for stopping by.

A woman is helpless only when her nail polish is drying......

My daughter gave me a sign that says just that as a gift. She is so right. I can cook anything I choose, change the oil in a car, change a tire and a hundred other things I learned along the way. Mess with me when my polish is drying, you are going to be in trouble. \ Seriously. Painting nail is an art, even if you are putting on one color. It's tricky,it takes practice and its frustrating as Hell if you have to start over. Be patient. Let a woman get her nails dry and everything is awesome. Fortunately my kids aren't little anymore and then fend for themselves most of the time. Other times it's like this "Mom, Mooooom, I've cut my carotid artery! I'm bleeding!!" Yes dear, I'll be right there. Let my nail polish dry. Seriously, it's never that severe. Funny though. On with the polish at hand.... I really like the Pro-Fx Nail Concealer. It makes a nice smooth base to work with. I use one coat. It dries fast which is a bonus. Who really...

Say hello to my little friends.......

Hello little friends...... Greetings fans. Here is my polish of the week. First off, I would like to thank Piggie Luv for the idea. I saw a post on Pinterest and had to attempt to recreate it. I thought it was really cute and it turned out to be really easy to do. \ Without further hesitation, here is my creation. Base coat of your choice of course. Always a base coat. I used Orly Goth on all my nails. It's obviously black but it dose have a tiny bit of shimmer to it. This is just one coat. Then I made little balls of lines with white acrylic paint. Any white acrylic art paint will do. You can also use white polish. On My pinkies, I used China Glaze Heli-yum. This is a bright neon pinky/red color with a cream finish. Ring fingers I used China Glaze Metro Pollen-Tin ( a dark yellow cream) and Square Hue Beethoven Straat (lime green cream). Middle fingers was China Glaze Nasty, a bright berry cream. Pointers, I used China Glaze Bahamian Escape...

Helloo Baaaaby.....

Those are the words of the immortal Big Bopper aka J. P. Richardson who died in a plane crash along with Buddy Holly and Richie Valens, February 3rd, 1959. Truly a great tragedy for the world. Haven't a clue what I'm talking about, look it up. My last post I was struggling to get my nails back in shape. Sadly, they would grow a bit longer than my fingertip and then peel. I couldn't have a Nail Art Blog without nails!! Well now I do. Let's check it out. Here we are... I decided on this color because it's Spring in my neck of the woods. These are really simple, I think anyone could do them. These are PolyGel. Not a gel, not an acrylic. You do have to cure then in an LED/UV light but you could do them with regular polish and some nail art supplies. The pinky and thumb nail have gold nail foil on them. The ring finger has some glitter and a gold tone shield. The middle finger has some pearls and rhinestones attached. The index finger is my favorite. I starte...
